Nigerian international, Kenneth Omeruo, has joined Besiktas on a temporary move from Chelsea.
A source close to the club hinted that Besiktas will pay the Blues a €700,000 loan fee and have a €3 million release clause option, which will remain active until the end of the season.
There will now be a total of 22 Nigerian players plying there trade in Turkey – all leagues.
Omeruo was also one of the 35 players the Blues loaned out last season, playing for Super Lig minnows Kasimpasa.
The 22-year-old was, however, one of the stand out young defenders in the league, making 25 Super Lig appearances.
Omeruo earned himself an upgrade across Istanbul to league giants, Besiktas, where he will gain Champions League football experience for the first time in his career.
